Seeing the damage that is being caused by hydraulic fracking and tar sand oil extraction causes me great concern. Many of us, including those with children and grandchildren, realize that we are one struggling human race knitted together through our hearts. We know that our corporate-controlled government, media and economy are deeply disconnected from the human race and the world’s magnificent diversity. It is an unfortunate recipe for continued destruction and great suffering.

Until hearts open among those who choose to rule or to serve those who rule, we are destined to continue to degrade our life support systems and our chances for a future where we live as one human family enriched by the golden rule.
